Sweet Wife in My Arms - Chapter 527

Chapter 527: Your Life Is Important, But So Is Your Image

“Yan Huan told me previously that she had to run some errands today. The meeting will be conducted when she returns. She has not come back, and is probably still outside. Is she alright? Has anything happened to her?” Luo Lin was indeed worried about Yan Huan. She seemed to not be able to contact Yan Huan. Since Yan Huan had informed her beforehand, telling Luo Lin that she was going to check out the filming location by the street, Luo Lin reckoned that Yan Huan was out.

“Then, has anyone seen our Liang Chen?”

Liang Chen’s manager asked. She had been searching for her for half a day, but to no avail. After everyone else had left the room, Liang Chen was still nowhere to be seen. In fact, she seemed to be absent even throughout the meeting.

“I saw her,” a newcomer raised her hand carefully timidly as she stammered. She was probably deeply shocked by the sudden earthquake and was not sober-minded.

“I saw elder sister Liang Chen when she went back to her room. Maybe she’s still there…”

Her voice gradually diminished as she grabbed her head with her hands. In fact, she wanted to speak much earlier. But, nobody asked her.

Once Liang Chen’s manager heard about it, her face turned pale and her legs shivered. If the others failed to hold her, she would have possibly tumbled, fallen to the ground and became one with the mud.

At that moment, everyone was speechless and did not know how to respond. All of a sudden, someone barged in with the movement so fast that the spectators could barely see the back of the person. The person was none other than Qi Haolin.

At that instant, the ground quaked once again. Followed by the screams and cries of the people.

Inside the room, Liang Chen was completely naked. Her hair was even covered with remaining bubbles that she had yet to wash off.

“Yan Huan, Yan Huan…”

She repeatedly slapped Yan Huan’s face and shook Yan Huan. However, Yan Huan was dead-asleep. Everything else was shuddering and Yan Huan was the only person who continued to sleep soundly.

Liang Chen urgently ran to the door and intended to open the door. But, the door was locked from the other side.

With strenuous effort, she turned the knob to open the door, but to no avail.

“Open the door, open the door!” She continuously smacked the door, but nobody came to help.

“Yan Huan…” She ran to Yan Huan’s side again and shook her vigorously, “Yan Huan, wake up. Quick. The earthquake is happening. We must escape fast.” However, Yan Huan continued to sleep like a baby with her eyes tightly shut. Has she passed out?

At that moment, the ground shook once again.

Liang Chen was frightened, to the extent that she failed to hold back her tears.

“Liang Chen, Liang Chen, are you there?” All of a sudden, someone banged on the door from the outside. Liang Chen was overjoyed and her tears streamed down her face.

“It’s me, I’m here. Yan Huan and I are both here.”

Upon hearing Liang Chen’s voice from the other side of the door, Qi Haolin heaved a sigh of relief. He used all his might to pull the door but it did not budge a bit as it was locked from the other side. Without giving much thought, he took a step backward and cannoned into the door.

The strength and quality of the door was apparently poor.

With a loud bang, he broke the door and barged into the room. In the meantime, Liang Chen was standing there, completely bare. She is really…

Qi Haolin immediately removed his shirt and draped it around Liang Chen’s shoulders. She grasped the shirt. All of a sudden, she reached out to give Qi Haolin a tight hug. “Sorry, sorry…” she kept on apologising without any reason.

Qi Haolin clutched her shoulder as tears brimmed his eyes. He felt as though he had retrieved something he lost and was not able to contain the overwhelming emotion. Out of nowhere, he cupped Liang Chen’s face in his hands and forcefully pressed his lips against hers.

“I’m afraid that I’ll not be able to say this anymore if I don’t say it now. I have thought about it. I used to think that I could possibly live without you as there are billions of people on earth. But I have learned something today. Liang Chen, I can’t f*cking live without you. I love you and only you. Do you know how many years I’ve loved you for? I wanted to get closer to you. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have chosen this path, joined your company and become your junior. F*ck our age gap. I like the fact that you’re older than me and I especially love your maturity.”

As Qi Haolin cursed, he was biting Liang Chen’s lips almost the entire time. He could hold back any longer. There was absolutely no way he could contain his emotions. If he was given the option, he would choose to die in her stead so that he could end this once and for all.

Liang Chen shook her head. At this moment, she no longer tried to dodge, neither was she acting restrained or self-conscious. Undeniably, she was a renowned actress, wealthy and famous. Yet, she had surprisingly low self-esteem. She never denied her insecurities. In fact, she had always known Qi Haolin’s feelings towards her. But, she constantly pretended to not know a thing about it as she was six years older than her. She reckoned what others said might be true.

When she became the best actress, her future husband would still be sitting for his high school exams.

“I love you too. I have been feeling the same.” Her emotions erupted as though she could disregard everything now and tear the world apart. Now, she was no longer bothered by age about their ages, their circumstances and the earthquake. She only wanted to be with him. Even if she was going to die the next second, she could not be bothered.

Just then, the shirt on Liang Chen’s shoulders was stripped off and her fair body was exposed. Despite being 34 years old, her body was maintained in good shape as she took her physical training very seriously. It would not raise doubt if anyone was to call her an 18-year-old girl.

Both of them seemed to be exceedingly absorbed in themselves. Witnessing the raging passion and lust, Yan Huan expected an adult-rated scene was going to be broadcasted before her. She could not pretend to be asleep anymore as she had completely no interest to watch a live love scene. Can they think? The earthquake is happening now. Even if it isn’t, I’m still here.

She sat up and glared at both of them.

“Can you not forget my presence when you’re engrossed in your personal activity? Do you see me as a log? Can you resume after I leave this place? Then, you can do whatever you want. Please don’t contaminate an innocent girl like me, alright? Oh, no, I mean, an innocent lady.”

Stupefied, Liang Chen quickly picked up her clothes and messily put it on. Her entire body was flushed red. On the other hand, Qi Haolin was embarrassed and ashamed. As though he was reminded of something important, he grabbed Liang Chen’s hand and said, “Let’s get out of here. There’s an earthquake.”

Liang Chen’s face was painted with fright. Her initially blushing face had now turned completely pale as she felt a chill in her heart.

“Earthquake?” Yan Huan acted as if she had not seen anything and walked toward them. She boldly removed Qi Haolin’s hand from Liang Chen, “Stay away from my sister. Are you happy with taking advantage of her now?” She deliberately opened her wardrobe, took out Liang Chen’s jacket and undergarments and placed it in front of her. She spoke, “Your life is important, but so is your image.”
